reset it by simultaneously pressing the keys
and
as well as the on-off

7. Selection and settings of diyplay mode
Handling of the SensBox is in principle self-explanatory and easy. After
switch-on the altimeter function is always displayed. The basic setting of the
altimeter is adjusted in the factory to the 1013 hPa standard. If display of the
current altitude value for the respective location is required, the SensBox must
be adjusted to the actual atmospheric pressure, such as any other barometric
altimeter. This is performed in menu item Air pressure, unless the actual altitude
value is known and can therefore be adjusted.
Each further pressing on the „OK“ key shifts to the next display mode.
In the current firmware 1.00.06 are available 9 ( 10 ) modes:
Altimeter
Variometer - optical and acoustical
Air pressure ( QNH )
Magnetic compass
GPS Speed over Ground
GPS Position
Time of day ( UTC )
Memory display
Acceleration ( momentarily not yet active )
Volume
According to the mode which is displayed, it may be necessary to execute
an adjustment of the display.
This procedure is in principle the same for most of the display
modes. Therefore it is exemplarily described and illustrated
here in detail only once.
At this point the correction of altitude display is described.
As the altitude display is changed according to atmospheric pressure,
it is necessary to perform a correction in order to have a correct barometric
altitude display during a flight.
